Gigabyte 6VM7-4E User Manual

FCC Compliance Statement:

This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with limits for a Class B digital device ,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in
residential installations. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy, and if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructio ns, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no g uara nte e that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause interference to radio or

television equipment reception, which can be
determined by tur ning th e equi pment off and on, the us er is e ncourage d to try t o
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

-Move the equipment away from the receiver

-Plug the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected

-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions

You are cautioned that any change or modifications to the equipment not
expressly approve by the party responsible for compliance could void Your
authority to operate such equipment.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subjected to
the following two conditions 1) this device may not cause harmful interference
and 2) this device mu st a cc ept any interference received , in cl uding interference
that may cause undesired operation.

CPU Speed Setup

The system bus speed is selectable at 66,100,133MHz and Auto. The user can select the
system bus speed

(SW1)

and change the DIP switch

(SW2)

selection to set up the CPU speed

for 500MHz – 1GHz and above processor.

Set System Bus Speed

The CPU speed must m atch with the frequency ratio. It will cause system hanging up if
the frequency ratio is higher than that of CPU.

Note:

1. If you use 66/1 00/133 MHz CPU, We recommen d you to setup your system speed to
“Auto” value.

2. We don’t recommend you to set up your system speed to 75 , 83 , 112 , 124 , 140 ,150
MHz because these frequ encies are not the standard sp ecifications for CPU, Chipset
and most of the peripherals. Whether your system can run under
75 ,83 ,112 ,124 ,140 ,150 MHz properly will depend on your hardware configurations:
CPU, SDRAM, Cards, etc.
